GDP Script/ Top Stories for Dec 31st    Publish Date:  Dec 29th     HENSSLER 15 From the Henssler Financial Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Sunday, December 31st, and Happy heavenly Birthday to singer Donna Summer. ***12.31.23 - BIRTHDAY - DONNA SUMMER*** I'm Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by Kia Mall of Georgia. Explore Gwinnett Celebrates Top Hospitality Leaders at Annual Awards Reception Significant Representation Changes in Gwinnett Following Judicial Approval of New Congressional and Legislative Maps Judge Upholds Redistricting Maps: McBath to Contest for Her Previous Seat in the 6th Congressional District All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: MOG STORY 1: Explore Gwinnett Recognizes Hospitality Partners at Annual Hospitality Awards Reception Explore Gwinnett recently hosted its annual hospitality awards event, recognizing distinguished leaders in the hospitality industry. Attended by over 150 industry professionals, the event also served as a donation drive, collecting over 4,500 items for the Michael Steven Powell Legacy Fund. The award recipients included Shannon Butler, Wendi Lucas, David Sukala, Kevin Priger, and Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation, honored in various categories. The hospitality community's strong community stewardship was highlighted, contributing to Explore Gwinnett's annual charity drive. The collected items will benefit the Michael Steven Powell Legacy Fund, supporting local charities in Gwinnett County. STORY 2: Gwinnett will see major representation shakeups after judge upholds new congressional, legislative maps A federal judge upheld the redrawn district maps for Gwinnett County, splitting it between four congressional districts and adding an extra seat to the county's state House delegation. The new maps were created during a special session after the previous ones were found to violate the Voting Rights Act. The changes include the dismantling of coalition districts, affecting Gwinnett's representation. Notably, state Reps. Sam Park and Gregg Kennard are now in the same district, and the District 105 seat, represented by Democrat Farooq Mughal, becomes more Republican-friendly. Critics, including Democrats, argue that the new maps preserve Republican majority, but the judge deemed them legal. STORY 3: McBath will run for her old 6th Congressional District seat after judge upholds redistricting maps U.S. Rep. Lucy McBath will no longer represent part of Gwinnett County after a federal judge upheld the recent redrawn congressional and state legislative maps. McBath, who moved to the Gwinnett-centric 7th congressional district after the 6th district was redrawn in 2021 to favor Republicans, announced she will run for her old 6th district seat in 2024. The judge ruled that the redrawn maps met the standards set and ordered by him, addressing concerns about the dilution of Black voters' strength. Gwinnett County is now split between four congressional districts, impacting the representation and political landscape in the region.

Break 2: PEGGY SLAPPY – TOM WAGES – DTL STORY 4: Dacula High School grad serving aboard USNS Mercy hospital ship Ensign Terry Draper from Dacula is serving on the hospital ship USNS Mercy for Pacific Partnership 2024, a multinational humanitarian and disaster relief mission in the Indo-Pacific. Draper, a Navy veteran of 14 years, serves as the security officer responsible for antiterrorism and force protection. The mission focuses on disaster response preparedness and capacity-building while enhancing partnerships with participating nations. The USNS Mercy will visit the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Solomon Islands, Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia, conducting civic-action projects, medical symposiums, and disaster response training activities. STORY 5: Osprey crashes could endanger funding for new tilt-rotor Army aircraft Bell is developing Fort Worth-based Bell Textron, contracted to develop the Army's next long-range assault aircraft, faces potential challenges due to recent fatal crashes of its V-22 Osprey. The V-280 Valor, Bell's tilt-rotor design, was chosen by the Army to replace the UH-60 Black Hawk. Concerns about safety and the award process have been raised, especially after a Nov. 29 Osprey crash. Despite opposition, Bell's contract stands, and the company continues progress, including new facilities. Congressional concerns and the Osprey's safety history may impact the Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft program, but experts suggest the investigation's results will guide decisions. We'll be back in a moment Break 3:  ESOG – INGLES 5 – JACKSON EMC STORY 6: Health Alert: Cardio or Weights First? Doctor Explains Combining cardio and resistance training in one session is beneficial for overall health, reducing cardiovascular and metabolic risks. Research indicates that the order of aerobic and resistance exercises doesn't significantly impact fitness improvements. While consistency is crucial, personal preferences can guide the order of exercises. Concurrent training, involving both forms of exercise, yields generalized benefits in aerobic capacity and muscular strength. This approach is particularly advantageous for individuals with chronic disease risk factors. With 38.4 million Americans having diabetes and nearly 70% being overweight or obese, blending exercises contributes to improved health outcomes. STORY 7: Health Alert: ADHD Meds in Childhood Do Not Increase Future Drug Use Risk. Doctor Explains Children treated with prescription stimulants for ADHD do not face a higher risk of substance use disorder (SUD) later in life, according to a study involving rigorous diagnosis and long-term assessment until an average age of 25. This finding dispels concerns about ADHD medication's long-term effects. Recognizing nontraditional ADHD symptoms, such as sleep issues and irritability, is crucial. The study, involving 579 children, analyzed the relationship between stimulant medication and later substance use, finding no evidence of a connection. This research provides reassurance to parents and patients, fostering better-informed discussions about managing ADHD in children. We'll have final thoughts after this.

Originally serving Snellville, Grayson, and Loganville, the chamber will now include Lawrenceville, Dacula, and cities in DeKalb, Rockdale, and Newton counties. The expansion aims to support the growth of small businesses in these areas. The chamber is undergoing strategic changes, including new branding and a robust business training and development program. Partnerships with NCG Cinemas and the Georgia Swarm lacrosse team will provide digital marketing and vending opportunities for chamber members. The goal is to foster an inclusive and sustainable business economy in north Georgia by supporting both small and large businesses.     Story 3: c.o.n.   The Georgia state Senate is actively pursuing reform or repeal of the state's certificate of need law (CON), which governs hospitals and healthcare services. A newly created Senate study committee will begin meeting in June to explore ways to reform the law. Georgia's CON law requires applicants to demonstrate the need for new medical facilities or services in a community. The push for reform or abolition of CON came through bills introduced by Senate Republicans, but they did not pass in the House. Advocates argue that eliminating CON would improve access to healthcare, while opponents express concerns about the impact on rural communities and the concentration of hospitals in wealthier areas. The House is also expected to address the issue in the coming months.   we'll be right back:   Break 1:  Slappey- Tom Wages - then Obits   STORY 4: dance   Riley Brison, a Lilburn native and lifelong dancer, founded the Gwinnett Dance Project to provide professional dance opportunities after realizing the limited options available after college. The contemporary dance group, consisting of eight to ten dedicated dancers, focuses on modern and ballet techniques while incorporating elements of jazz funk, hip hop, and step dance. They hold auditions annually and prioritize community engagement, with two mainstage performances each year and additional events. The company also donates 10% of profits to nonprofit organizations, with a recent performance supporting mental and emotional health. The Gwinnett Dance Project is committed to outreach and has taught and performed for various community groups. More information can be found at gwinnettdanceproject.org.       Story 5: treatments   New research suggests that personalized treatments for psoriasis, a painful skin condition, may be on the horizon. Scientists have discovered that the activity of specific cells and chemicals can distinguish between mild and severe cases of psoriasis. This finding could lead to the development of more effective targeted drugs. Psoriasis, which affects millions of people in the US, occurs when the skin replaces itself too quickly. The study identified key regulators of inflammation, such as fibroblasts and macrophages, which were more common in severe cases. Understanding these molecular causes could help design personalized therapeutic approaches and shed light on related disorders like arthritis and cardiovascular disease.       Story 6: houck   Colin Houck, a two-sport standout from Parkview High School in Gwinnett, has been named the 2022-23 Gatorade Georgia Baseball Player of the Year. This marks the third consecutive year that a Gwinnett player has won the award.

He has also excelled academically with a 4.05 GPA. Houck is now a finalist for the Gatorade National Baseball Player of the Year award.

Boulware, a 6-foot-5, 240-pound defensive lineman, is regarded as a three-star prospect. In his junior year, he earned several accolades, including being named a first-team all-county selection and a first-team all-state selection. He recorded impressive statistics with 46 tackles, including 10 for losses, nine sacks, 32 quarterback hurries, and five blocked kicks. Boulware's commitment adds to Vanderbilt's recruiting class as they look to strengthen their team for upcoming seasons.   Story 8: soccer   Remi Okunlola, a senior soccer player, had his interest in high school soccer sparked during the 2022 season when he watched his younger sister's games at Brookwood High School. As an Atlanta United Academy player, he hadn't previously played high school soccer, but he decided to join Brookwood for his senior year. The decision proved fruitful as Okunlola received multiple awards, including Class AAAAAAA Player of the Year, Daily Post Player of the Year, and Gwinnett Goal Club Class AAAAAAA Player of the Year. Despite not knowing what to expect, Okunlola aimed to have fun and ended up having a great season with the team. The Atlanta United Academy allowed him to participate in high school soccer for his senior year, and Brookwood's coach and teammates appreciated his contribution and humble attitude.   Back with final thoughts after this   Henssler 60 Thanks again for listening to today's Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.
